MELBOURNE : With Cameron Green eager to break back into Australia's starting XI, Marnus Labuschagne felt a rush of relief when he was cleared to play in the 'Boxing Day' test against Pakistan after taking a nasty blow to his pinky finger in the hosts' series-opening win.
PERTH :Seamer Aamer Jamal bowled with pace and confidence on Friday to claim a six-wicket haul on his debut and help Pakistan bowl Australia out for 487 on day two of the first test in Perth.
There has been heavy criticism from fans and experts alike when it comes to the timing of the ongoing T20I series between India and Australia. The series started just four days after the Cricket World Cup 2023 final between the two sides and both countries fielded comparatively younger squads for the five matches. England cricket team legend Michael Vaughan took to social media to react to a recent interview of Australia cricketer Travis Head and criticised the timing of the series. "The most ridiculous series … Non of them should have been playing …," he posted on X (formerly known as Twitter).
Uncapped pacer Lance Morris has been included in Australia's 14-man squad for the first Test against Pakistan in Perth, which will be played from December 14 onwards. Morris, nicknamed 'The Wild Thing' for his ferocious pace, has enjoyed a great start to his first-class career, taking 74 wickets in just 22 games so far at an average of 25.44. He could be making his Test debut in front of his home fans in the state of Western Australia.
Australian cricket team star Mitchell Marsh was not happy with the timing of the India vs Australia T20I series just days after the conclusion of the Cricket World Cup 2023. There were just four days between the final of the competition and the first game of the five-match T20I series between India and Australia. In a recent interaction, Marsh said that the players who were part of the World Cup-winning squad did not get any chance to celebrate the triumph as they had to get ready for the series. He further added that it was a tiring campaign for them and it would have been great if the players got more time to spend with their families before playing another series.
Australia all-rounder Mitchell Marsh had become a topic of major controversy for putting with his feet on the World Cup trophy during his side's post-match celebrations. Australia won a record-extending sixth World Cup title last month after beating hosts India at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. In a viral picture, Marsh was captured putting his his feet on the World Cup trophy as the team celebrated their victory. He was on the receiving end of some harsh criticism, with many even suggesting that Marsh had the trophy and the game by doing the same.
All-rounders Hardik Pandya and Cameron Green were part of two big trades in the Indian Premier League (IPL) ahead of the mini auction for the new season, scheduled to take place on December 19. After spending two seasons at Gujarat Titans as captain, Pandya re-joined his first franchise Mumbai Indians as a part of an all-cash deal. He started his IPL career with MI in 2015 and represented them for seven seasons before making a switch to GT in 2022.
After the Cricket World Cup final, which saw the Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team lose to Australia by six wickets in Ahmedabad on Sunday, one image that went viral on social media was that of Mitchell Marsh. In the photo, the Australian cricket team star could be seen putting his feet on the Cricket World Cup trophy. The action was criticised heavily on social media with many users suggesting that Marsh disrespected the trophy and the game with this gesture.
